Skip the cold start. Launching a new chain usually... means starting with zero liquidity. That ends today. With ZKsync Interop enabled by our Atlas upgade, all ZK Chains can interact natively with Ethereum DeFi. This means Enterprises leveraging Prividiums to tap into Ethereum liquidity for the first time, while maintaining their own private environment.show more

Institutions want to build on Ethereum and leverage its... incorruptibility, hard finality, and global liquidity. But many financial use-cases can’t be run on a chain where everything is public by default. Here’s how Prividium extends Ethereum for enterprises:show more

ZK Stack is a modular framework for building sovereign... ZK-powered hyperchains, based on zkSync Era’s open source code. ➡️ Visit the new ZK Stack resource page: ZK Stack gives builders full sovereignty, ranging from the choice of the data availability mode to using your project's own token to decentralize the sequencer. ✅ Mature and battle-tested ZK Stack is the most battle-tested framework, ensuring all transactions are fully verified by Ethereum with the power of ZK proofs. ZK enables validity proofs to ensure the hyperchains' ecosystem state can't be corrupted and invalid transactions can't exist. ZK Stack has been further strengthened by $5M+ invested in audits, $~30M transactions-per-month and ~250k daily active users. ✅ Tailored to your needs ZK Stack grants you full autonomy to tailor your blockchain to cater to your product or protocol use case. A modular stack of ZK-powered components. ✅ Ready for mainstream adoption No matter how much adoption grows, ZK Stack brings the power of horizontal scalability to Ethereum. Just like adding more servers to address specific needs on the Internet, a boundless amount of hyperchains can be created with minimal costs. ZK tech, combined with our state diffs and data-compression approaches, unlocks: 📌 Flat fees regardless of gas price 📌 Privacy by default 📌 Cheap oracles (or any high-frequency protocol) 📌 Ultra low cost Validium accounts 📌 UX magic with native account abstraction ✅ Seamless access to users and liquidity Hyperchains are seamlessly interconnected with hyperbridges — the native and trustless communication protocol of the ZK Stack. It enables any chain to natively exchange messages and transfer value with any other chain, thus tapping into the users and liquidity of the entire hyperchain ecosystem. Unlike classic, centralized, bridges, hyperbridges rely solely on cryptography for security. ✅ Built today, to last forever ZK Stack is rooted in the long-term vision of Ethereum, aiming for subtraction and decentralization. Abiding by the ZK Credo principles, an alliance of developers and maintainers will guarantee the resources enabling this fully open source framework to evolve to onboard the needs of the next billion users.show more

Tharwa x MEV Capital: Building Liquidity with a $2B... DeFi Asset Manager We’re pleased to announce our partnership with MEV Capital, a DeFi-native asset manager with more than $1.3B in TVL and $500M in AUM. Their focus on liquidity deployment and structured risk management makes them a strong fit as thUSD continues to expand. In practice, this means deeper liquidity for thUSD and sthUSD, tighter spreads, and access to strategies that connect directly into our bonds and stablecoin markets. MEV Capital’s DeFi expertise has allowed them to efficiently manage close to $2B of digital assets across EVM chains and L1 networks such as Sui and Solana. Their presence across the UAE and Europe also matches where we’re building on the institutional side. The partnership begins with their first allocation into thUSD, setting the stage for liquidity programs and bond market integrations. Their privately run investment vehicles and curated permissionless vaults represent the first wave of capital we expect to see enter the Tharwa ecosystem. Partnerships like this are about alignment. Experienced managers paired with structured systems create liquidity that is stronger and yield that lasts. We’re glad to welcome MEV Capital as a strategic partner.
